Goodbye, Norman Wisdom! Listening to all the lovely obits about this brilliant man has prompted me to tell you about the time I met him. He was at Manchester Airport, about to catch a flight to the Isle of Man, when I bumped into him in Departures. I asked if I could take a photograph of him, assuming he'd simply stand and smile for me. Oh no, not Norman..he waltzed over to a busker standing by the door, borrowed his guitar and case and gave me this great 'poor me!' expression. Everyone says he was always performing..and he performed just for me. What a laugh, what a guy!
